      Giuseppe Gasparini Great! I enjoyed very much how you play rest stroke for the major part and still have a very fluent musical line! I would try to make the tempi and the A and B part more similar, so that the piece sounds more coherent!

      Blaise Laflamme For future reference ( In case I want to try Carbon again), which "tension" of the Knobloch Carbon CX are you using?  Is your guitar Spruce or Cedar?  Thanks!!

      Barney My current guitar has a cedar top, while I wait impatiently for my next spruce top, and my preferred tension so far is medium (red set) as they are similar to the Savarez Alliance Cantiga - medium. A few months ago I did a «string challenge» where I was restringing my guitar once or twice a week across multiple brands and tensions to find the sweet spot for my guitar.

      Barney Thanks, you're right👍, the second part I wanted to change color and instead I slowed it down🤨

      Giuseppe Gasparini Bravo Giuseppe - it sounds nice. I too have played it many times and am never satisfied. Maybe we (or at least you) should be.

    Here is Maria Gavota, which needs some polishing in a few spots.

    On to the next piece --maybe an easy one, or more demanding one like Danza Mora.  Stay tuned...

      Barney that was amazing! So beautifully played! I was actually looking at Danza Mora which I absolutely love and I can't even manage the first line yet!
